Hello,
I have one suggestion. I think making TAB move from field to field is
useful. For example, in the following record, assume point at `R'ichard,
TAB could move from R -> F -> m -> n -> next record

Good catch!
The "degree" field is possibly not named in the best way. For me,

Hello,
As stated in the subject line.
I still find the firstname + lastname + degree not able to cover some
use cases. For example: Professor Sir (Robert) Brian Heap CBE FRS.
vCard has N type that has:
surname, given name, additional, prefix, suffix
which is more accommodating.
